Not looking very likely right now. .

Well, I hope things calm down up there so you can make your trip.

Welp, I made my weekly trip to Walmart to get provisions.

Everything was going OK, till I tried to pull a 40 half liter bottles value pack of water off of the top of a three high stacked on the bottom shelf to get it onto the lower part of my shopping cart.

I didn't realize it was a "value pack" (about 45 pounds). Somewhere along the transfer things went horribly wrong. The case of water went one way, the shopping cart went another way and I fell and rolled another way. -

Fortunately, there was this big ol ugly white boy (reminded me of @Ultramaroon ) right there and ask if he could help. I said yes and he picked up that 45 pounds of water and tossed it under my shopping cart like it was an empty cardboard box. -

He then mentioned that I should tend to that cut on my hand because I was dripping blood all over the floor. Sure enough I had cut the back of my hand open, so I ripped into a package of paper napkins and made a band aid.

Lesson learned - don't by "value packs" of bottled water -

That'll teach you to needlessly buy bottled water, instead of drinking filtered tap water!

Hopefully no injuries besides your pride.

We had a little help with the gardening.

So how does that one kill you?

It doesn't. It is a Magpie. It just steals your keys and you can't get back into the house so the rest of the Aussie fauna can get you.

Ok, this taco bell stuff isn't funny this morning. I'm popping Imodium like tic tacs. Never again.

My truck looks so tiny compared to our production managers.

You need to eat more of it and build an immunity. Once you do that eat some green beans and see what happens to you!

He uses it to tow his V8 swapped S-10 to the strip.

That truck reminds me of the ones that I encounter on the highway and try to race me revving their straight piped diesel smoke machines.
